Known as "the world's most famous arena," Madison Square Garden is a 20,000 seat stadium hosting everything from dog shows to rock concerts to sporting events of every kind (the Knicks and Rangers both call the Garden home).

Tickets: Knicks games sell out before the season begins; Rangers tickets have become increasingly more available with every losing season. Watch out for scalpers: There's plenty of them, and they're notorious for printing counterfeit tickets and leaving you at the mercy of the ushers once inside.

Food: Food at the Garden is pretty good for arena fare. For Club Seat and Suite Ticket holders, there is an exclusive restaurant, the Club Bar and Grill, and a sports bar, the Play By Play. (Photo: courtesy Madison Square Garden)
